Maximum votes: You can set the maximum number of votes that the students have to select. If this number is greater than 1, then students will be able to select multiple candidate answers.
Learning Outcomes
Mapping learning outcomes to activities is very useful for curriculum mapping.
As with all activities in LAMS, you can map your learning outcomes to this activity. If you want to add a learning outcome, just search for the particular outcome or type a new one it will be added to your list of learning outcomes for the future.
You can search Learning Outcomes by code or name.
Reflection and End of Activity
As in all LAMS activities, you are able to get your students to reflect on the activity as soon as they finish. This is an important part of learning and research shows that it is when we reflect upon what we just learned that long-lasting learning forms.
